Although I have been running this version of the kernel as my daily driver and I test everything in real life, I take no responsibility if the phone has an issue, scares your cat, drops the job interview call of your life or makes you fight with your neighbor 😉
DOWNLOAD
Please don’t direct link the zip file.
If you would like to include ShinTo Kernel in your rom, you’re more than welcome; just give everyone credit and include PreCog.me as the site for ShinTo Kernel.
I really hope you enjoy ShinTo Kernel (as I have been), and I would advise you to subscribe to PreCog.me for more goodies to come (specialized software, articles, diy, news, etc)

CHANGELOG
This new release of ShinTo Kernel includes the following :
- Huge eMMC bug fixes + upgrades & enhancements; I mean a TON of patches!
- Invested many hours in hunting down and fixing PrecoGOV bugs… some very sneaky :p
- Enhanced PrecoGOV (and activated some dormant algorithms), now at version 1.9.8
- Ported over Samsung MEA sources.
- Removed IntelliPlug (If you need to have IntelliPlug, I’d advise you to look elsewhere).
- We are still at BETA so you might have the occasional problem (or not).
- REMOVED UltrLow mode 268Mhz as there are some Note3 that don’t seem to like it much… For now I’m focusing on STABILITY.
It is compiled with latest available LINARO Toolchain GCC 4.9.3 compiled by the great Christopher83
KNOWN ISSUES
- Synapse: mic volumes reset to -84 the first time you launch synapse but I have included code to reset it to 0. You only have to accept and it will reset to 0.
- Synapse: Fast charge; For values to stick across reboot, you HAVE to UNCHECK “FAILSAFE” at the bottom of the screen in “FAST CHARGE”.
- ShadowLED: Works without issues once you deselect led notifications from the ROM settings.
- VIPER4ANDROID: When you first start your phone, viper4android is off. To fix, you have to launch viper4android so it restarts it’s engine. That issue happens if you have eXpanD activated.
- N900T WIFI CALLING: Sorry guys, I haven’t had the time yet to look into it and see where the issue is. I hope to get it sorted out on time the release of L10A01.
SUPPORT
- Absolutely NO kind of support will be given here if you happen to have any issue while you are Overclocked or Undervolted.
- If you encounter an issue then you will have to reset to stock manufacturer sanctioned settings (300 Mhz to 2.230 Mhz & stock voltages), remove ANY/ALL scripts in /etc/init.d/and reproduce the issue with all debugging turned on (Go to Synapse “SYSTEM DEBUG”).
- Please use the included SYSLOG APP, select ONLY the first two options and send the ZIP file/upload somewhere so I can have a look at it with a description of what you were doing, what happened and the kind of device, rom version and if you were using XPOSED or not.
- IF YOU HAVE ISSUES BUT CAN’T PRODUCE A VALID LOGFILE, DON’T BOTHER REPORTING THEM AS I CAN’T GUESS WHAT YOUR PROBLEMS ARE.
Working very well and doing battery.. Noticed some errors in Synapse when setting precov for the first time but it set correctly
Haven’t had the time to review and improve Synapse so there will be bugs there. Thx for reporting, will try to improve Synapse for the next release.
Thanks buddy..L09A06 works awesome, battery-use and performance!!..
As always you’re most kind, I’ll keep improving it and bringing exclusive surprises
THANK YOU!
Another brilliant release! You really put a heart into the phone! Very smooth UI, very responsive and aggressive while in use, sleep quickly and very well too! Question, what’s the settings for kernel VM > DBR, DR and Swappiness? Suggestion: as ShadowLED is taking over LED control from notification, is it possible to bind notification to touch key light (e.g. blinks when a message comes)? Muchas gracias!
Hi there, so i saw a post where you required some logs for feedback. Here’s mine: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B24gwDhTSqH_V29sWkhpTmM3NmM/view?usp=docslist_api
My notes are within the Zip folder on what I think caused problems. Hopefully you find some useful info for your next release 🙂
Cheers
Thx!
Greetings!
I tried a lot of kernels but yours i like the most. Probably that’s why i always come back to it. Lovind the concept of Precognition governor. Thank you. Keep up the good work.
PS: I’ve been getting some random reboots when fast charge is active. I set the failsafe to disabled, and used custom charging values. I don’t need help but you could look into it to fix it in next versions.
Sorry I cannot for the life of me find the download link anywhere? Can someone pls provide me the link, thanks!
Look closely at fourth page and you shall find what you seek.
Good luck!
Just an FYI, the precog gov. setting doesn’t stick after reboot, defaults to interactive.
Please give your phone a couple of minutes after booting before checking the settings with Synapse.
If you change your phone while it’s powered off and try to power on it reboots back in changing mode.
This kernel is great. From some reason the last update from August 23 does not work well on my note 3. I cannot change the governer to precog, and I get an error message. It is working well with the previous version from July 24. Do you have any idea why is that?
Thanks for your work.
I would suggest uninstalling Synapse and removing it’s data before flashing the latest version of ShinTo Kernel.
Thanks. I will try that and let you know.
I tried to uninstalling Synapse and its data and then flashing the latest version of ShinTo Kernel, but it did not help, precog did not work.
Download link?
I set the min gpu freg 200mhz in synapse but it still 27mhz, my phone is so lag
I’ve SM-9005 (international version) and in Synapse I’ve 27 mhz on GPU, but no lags, it runs very smoothly. Try to delete all files in synapse folder and reboot. If you get no luck, reinstall kernel, but before flash a kernel cleaner zip. If it still lags, try to full wipe and reflash your ROM.
Hey mate, can you email me your recommended default settings for the kernel & precognition govenor?
I’m attempting to put together a .git repo of my tweaks (since they are all ramdisk related, why not make it universal 🙂 )
I’m going to try to get as many in there as possible and definately want precog on-board
https://bitbucket.org/kpirnie/team-dompop-ramdisk
Ok, apparently I’m a tool, you’ve already got them in there…
Is “precognition” correct for:
/sys/devices/system/cpu/*/cpufreq/scaling_governor
Hey Kev!
Yeah it’s called precognition
There’s nothing to change or tweak in the public version of PrecoGOV (precognition governor).
No defaults that you set or anything on post_boot?
Sweet!
Yep…that’s the whole point of PrecoGOV
Where is the kitkat version for those of us who haven’t to update to lollipop, I have waited for 3 month did you discontinued it?
The only problem is that i have many lags in games. All the rest works perfectly on my note 3. Any idea?
I’m extremely confused, where is the download link?
Never mind, I couldn’t see the Pages Links, which meant I couldn’t go on to the Page with the downloads.
Hi Carlos, IMO this is already the best and flawless release! Smooth, responsive, stable, rock solid, battery friendly, all function working… Can’t imagine what further improvement you will include… AWESOME!
Thank you very much for your continued support!
